A CORRESPONDENT of the Chicago Tribune
asks for statement, sin plain English" why
jeff Davis was not hanged for treason at the close
Of the war. A good many people may have for
gotten that passage of history, may like to
have it recalled The Tribune says:
''There were several reasons In the first place,
it was a disputed question whether he should be
tried by court martial or by the United States
Courtin the ordinary way. Second should he be
tried for completely in the assassination plot or
for treasonf l. was early decided not to try him
by courr-martial or for completely in the assasi-
nation of Lincoln He was then indicted in the
regular way by the United States District Court
in Richmond, Va. He had from the first been
imprisoned in Fortress Monroe Lodged there
in May, 1865. he was kept in suspense. untried,
for about two years The loyal North, with
slight exceptions demanded his trial and execu-
sympathy with that sentiment at first. but he
soon swerved over to the other side, taking with
him the doughface or mugwump element of the
Republican party. Democratic lawyers pro-
fessed to find legal technicalities in the way Of
justice, and the court showed no disposition to
enter upon the trial. In 1868 he released on
bail, Horace Greeley going the bond with
court the indictment was dismissed. and carly in
the winter of 1868 a general amnesty was granted
by Andy johnson, which included jeff Davis,
and may be said to have closed out the case
The real reason he old traitor was not tried
was that Andy ohnson turned traitor to the
Unto party and threw himself into the arms of
the con federates, copperheads and doughfaces,
and hence there was no prosecution. johnson
did not want the villain tried and hanged. The
pro per way to have disposed of him was by
drumhead court-martial. but that was not done
and he escaped. and still lives to shout treason"

1.-The Indiana Democrats are specializing on
their candidate for Governor next year. They
say they want some man who is not tied up to
Voorhees, or Gray, and who did not give any
offense to the Democrats in the decision as to
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS last winter. If they can
find such man, and one who stands well as a
Democrat and citizen, they are sure that they
can carry the State"
The conditions attached to the candidacy are
embarrassing We doubt if Democrat could
be found in lie State who fits them all We
know of one who is not tied up to Voorhees, or
Gray, did not give offense to the party in the
Lieutenant governorship controversy, and
stands well as Democrat. but he doesn't
stand well as citizen. If these conditions
are to be insisted upon, we fear the nominal
ton will go begging.
